    Even though they are common grounds, I would run all separates wires to a common point on the engine block for best results. Don't connect multiple grounds before the engine block.

        Shouldn't I use the grounding point that the ECU uses?

                        Coils are all wired up.  I need to see if I need to run them to grounds coming from the harness or if I can just run them directly to the chassis ground.  I'm leaning towards running the grounds to the harness.

                        I disconnected the grounds from the MS3 and Expansion board from the pins.  I'll run these to the chassis ground for sure.  I don't want to overload those pins.

                        I still feel like I'm winging it so please help with any input.

                        A wired up coil.

                          This is what they are resting on when in the stock 413 red label ECU. I could use this as the heat sink and bolt it to the cover to dissipate the heat. What do you think?
